| Supposzp Hors Taiz KiLign.—
A dispatch from Bellefonte on Friday
says : Sugar Valley had a sensation
| yesterday in ‘the shooting of one Abram
1 Striker WhifHte, of No. 11, Stetler alley,
Wilkesbarre, & supposed horse thief.
On Tuesday night a fine, valuable
horse was stolen from: John Saul, Brush
valley ; one from a farmer in Big valley
thief, and yesterday afternoon overtook
the man in Sugar Valley near Logan-
ton, with the two horses and buggy in
his possession.:
‘The oonitabls decianded his surrender
but the man refused, at the same time
attempting to draw a revolver. Seeing
this action some one in the coustable’s |.
party shot at the man, hitting him in
the abdomen, producing a fatal wound.
He was then captured and his wound
dressed, after which he was conveyed to
to the Clinton county jail, where he was
incarcerated, and as the man seemed to
be sinking rapidly, the prison physician
was sent for: About 5 o’clock the pris-
oner realizing that he could not live
long, made the following statement,
“My name is Abram Striker Whiffle,
of No. 11 Stetler alley, Wilkesbarre. I
am & horse trader by profession. I have
a wife and four children in Wilkes-
barre. I traded horses for those in my
possession when I was arrested and shot,
making the deal in Brush valley. I left
Wilkesbarre twoor three weeks ago. No
I will not squeal on anybody.”
Further than this the man would not
talk. No arrrests have been made of
the party or parties who did the shoot-
ing, as it is believed they were forced to
it, in the discharge of their duty.
Whiftle died at eight o'clock Friday
evening. A post mortem examination
was made and the bullet, a32 calibre,
was found lodged in the bladder of the
deceased.— Huntington News.
AXoTHER OF Gov. CURTINS JOKES.—
The Tyrone correspondent of the Har-
risburg Patriot says: ‘‘Ex-Governor
Curtin stopped off here to-day fora
short time. He was on his way to
Philadelphia. Your correspondent had
quite a long chat with him. The Gov-
ernor certainly looks much better than he
did one year or even six months ago.
In fact, he hasn’t looked better for the
past ten years than he does now, and he
is just as witty as ever. “While Gover-
nor,’ he went on to say, ‘a friend of
mine called to see me, and in the coure
of conversation asked whether I could
tell him where to get a good horse, as
he wanted to buy one, but wanted a
first-class animal: I told him I was no
judge of horses, but pointed to Dr.
Rutherford, an old Harrisburg physician
now deceaced, who was present and
said : “The doctor there can give you
the desired information.” The doctor
said “Do you wanta first-class animal ?”’
“I do,” said the friend.” “Well sir,”
replied the doctor, “You can’t go amiss
in buying any horse you see within a
radius of forty miles of Harrisburg, for
all the bad horseshave been bought up
and turned over to the government for
‘the use of the army;’
Hox. LroNARD RHONE.—Prof. Har-
rington and Mr. Ridgeway are in con-
sultation concerning certain improve-
ments in the Weather Signal Service.
It is probable that before long a plan
will be evolved that will give farmers
the advantage of the Bureau. One
great difficulty in the wayis lack of
neccessary funds. The Government
seems to have plenty of money when ap-
propriations are wanted for public
buildings in obscure little towns ; but
when it comes to making provision fora
more extended weather signal service or
free mail delivery in rural districts—
both for the benefit of farmers—we hear
doleful cries about extravagance, and
piteous wails in favor of rigid economy.
Farmers, make a note of the fact that
these economy-shriekers are liberal
enough except when appropriations are
asked that will directly benefit you, and
when you get the opportunity show
your appreciation of their conduct by
defeating them at the polls.— Ez.
ALL A FARE.— With its usual irres-
ponsible bluster the Daily Gazette came
out on Wednesday after noon with g
great long cock and bull story about
the way Pennington, the man who broke
jail last Saturday morning. scared the
sheriff and his posse comprising officer
Gares, and Messrs. Strohm and Hunter,
In a full column it goes for the officers
in a way that reflects much discredit
upon. their ebility to catch even a cold
when in fact they never were closer
than three hundred yards to Penning-
ton and only gave up the chase because
it was raining so hard and he was mak-
ing better time across the fields than
they. Strohm and Hunter did not ev-
en see him while sheriff Ishler and
Gares caught sight of him leaving the
house long before they were near it.
The story of his searing them off with
revolvers is all bosh as the man was not
around at all and had nothing on but
trousers and shirt.

THREE PRISONERS ESCAPE. -- Last
Saturday morning Fort Ishler was:
‘thrown into a fever of excitement when
it was discovered that three of the birds
in the’ cage had “flown.” No one “knew
whither, and the “hole in the west cor-1-
iridor, or female wing, whs- all that was
left to tell of the route taken by Pen.
| nington, Confer and Wagner.
Henry: Pennington is the man who
‘was incarcerated on May 28th after
haying enjoyed his liberty for nearly a
year. He broke ‘jail almost a year ago’
with Andrew Timms and was ‘having a
goad time. up to the evening of the
28th when officer Gares arrested him
at’ Blackford’s testarant. He was up
for rape. .
Jas, Wagner was locked up on the
7th of June forasimilar assault and on
the 20d of ‘May Noah Confer the other
escaped ‘convict was ‘arrested for com-
mitting rape on a little girl do wn on the |
Kline farm about three miles below
town.
The escape was madebetween 10 o’cloek
Friday night and two o'clock Saturday
‘morning and was accomplished, as’ near’
as can be surmised in the following
way, ; Pennington evidently had in his
possession - the skeleton keys which he
and Timms had used a yearago to unlock
‘the cell doors and with them, left him-
self and the other {wo out int the up-
per corridor. They. then broke the
railing from the banisters and = with it
pried the wooden door into the woman's
wing open. Once there they were not
likely to be heard, as there were no
occupants in the cells in that quarter,
and they pried outa stone and some
bricks which made an opening large
enough for them to squeeze through.
The jail roof was reached and from it
the top of the wall down which they
scaled, by the aid of a rope, to freedom.
Their departure has caused quite &
flurry up about the Jail.
CouncIL IN SEsstoN.— Just énough
councilmen gathered around the table,
on Monday, night to make the business
that was transacted lawful and every-
thing went off in ‘the nicest possible
way,
Mr. Samuel Shaffer’s request for an
alley at the rear of his Curtin street pro-
perty was referred to the Street commit-
tee which thereupon reported improve-
ments on different thoroughfares in
town as well as to the sewerage systems.
Jno. C. Miller, Chas. Smith and
Isaac Mitchell were appointed a com-
mittee to assess water taxes for the en-
suing year, in accordance with the data
collected, by the first named gentleman,
for that purpose. A reduction of $3,000
in the appropriation for the Water com-
mittee was made as the request of said
committee at the result of economic
work at the water works.
The Nuisance committee reported the
abatement of several nuisances § reporiad
at the last meeting.
The hose question was taken up and
the bids of four gentlemen representing
as many firms, wero considered. The
outcome of the deliberations was a re-
solution to purchase 250 feet of Revere
Fire Hose at 85c ; represented by Jas.

hose at 85cts, represented by McKee &
Bro., and 100 feet of Eureka carbonized
